The National Law Review also covers hot topics like civil rights, and how they intersect with the public-education sector in the United States. Our legal experts also cover issues related to the evolution of Title IX, and how enforcement is carried out by the relevant agencies.  Additionally, NLR has articles on how public services and public education work together, topics like transgender discrimination, gender-based harassment claims, and discrimination lawsuits, are leading stories which visitors will find on the website.
